mirror up? you're right in the danger zone time-wise for mirror slap vibrations.

And why such a long exposure/odd EV combo?

cheers,

Micro adjust or GTFO.

Or, there's always manual focus.

I'm sure the camera is fine.

Here's another feathered friend. I have a few good pics waiting to be exported, but need to shoot some more landscapes - maybe walk around another city and look for more urban decay. There are some nice parks I need to visit, too.

2 pics for this guy. I can't choose which one I like over the other.

For me, this is the better shot (though they're both solid) because he's interacting with you. For portraits in general (in my opinion), eye contact is usually preferable.

Learning to manually focus while doing 55mph down a backroad with the top down.

That looks good to me.

This is a fairly heavy crop. I like the way this sparrow is riding the swinging feeder after landing. He / she? will sit there while I pour more seed out for them. \:D

I find that tamron UWA to be soft in the corners at anything below like f6.3, but its a wicked fun lens to play with. I saw the reflection in his aviators during the cruise and thought it would make a cool pic. It was good manual focus practice.

Obviously until I MFA any lens I intend upon using on this body I'm going to have to rely on manual focus skillz.

this little fucker was in the woods next to my house



He was moving around a lot, so the rest of the shots have serious blur due to the dark conditions and low shutter speeds... this was with my 70-200 wide open

obviously not trying for composition here, just a lens test:



random kitchen picture taken @ 200mm, f4... fully untouched, just resized to 1024.



100% full zoom crop of that image


Yes, my kitchen is disgustingly out of date. I know.

This Palin / Voldemort 2012 got a ton of hits last week, but didn't make for any photostream hits.

Damn - I really love this shot but there's something about the green grass at his feet that is bothering me. Almost like too green, not sure, looks almost natural but it looks almost artificial - errr. Its killing me because I don't know what is bothering me.

I almost want to say it seems like there's too much 'clarity' while using LR but then I look at everything else and I'm like it's not that.

I'm just going to say I love the shot but the green grass directly under him is bothering me.
